A nano tank layout featuring Eden (AGA 2024 #194), 1 L, by Samurdha Manthila. The composition is built around Clay ball with Drift wood.
The hardscape with Clay ball sets the rhythm; planting should support those lines without burying them. The plant list (Micranthemum tweediei ‘, Monte Carlo’, Rotala rotundifolia H’, Ludwigia glandulosa) favors background stem plants; packing the foreground too dense can make the tank feel heavy. No substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.
DIY lighting lighting sits at a approachable technical level for this nano tank. No filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters. Low-tech tip: favor slow growers and avoid dense planting if filtration is modest.
With No, watch bioload: a nano tank drifts quickly if stocking is heavy.
